Hemalatha's daughter: sharing the stage


V. Vasantha’s report on Nov.22 from Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan


At the Mambalam Sisters’ concert today, there was a little girl sitting behind the duo and keenly observing the proceedings.   She is Krishnapriya, daughter of Hemalatha, the violinist. She is learning both vocal and violin from her mother.

Krishnapriya told us later that she is a 5th standard student studying in Jaigopal Garodia, West Mambalam.

This was the first occasion when she shared the stage with her mother and aunts. She knew all the songs they sang and  was applying the thalam (misra chapu) when the thani was going on.
The picture was taken when the mom-daughter duo were coming out after the kutcheri.
